OUR WORK
Who We Are
World-Class Performance Training for Accomplished Professionals
Executive presence, public speaking, and communication coaching for lawyers, leaders, and public figures.
At Vox Vera®, we teach the physical craft of performance and presence — the same techniques elite actors and athletes use to perform at their best in demanding professional environments.
We don’t believe in canned checklists, fake smiles, or robotic gestures. Our work draws from time-tested performance craft, modern communication science, and decades of lived experience across law, business, academia, and the arts.
Whether you’re in a boardroom, courtroom, classroom, or on stage, we help you develop a voice that carries, bring humanity to your work, and connect when it matters most.
About Our Founder
Vox Vera was founded by Paul Marchegiani, a former BigLaw litigator, Fortune 50 entertainment executive, and accomplished classical performer.
Paul is the only U.S. lawyer and senior business executive certified in Patsy Rodenburg’s world-renowned voice and presence method, taught at the Royal Shakespeare Company and used by leading actors, directors, and public figures worldwide.
He has argued motions in federal court, negotiated multi-million-dollar Hollywood deals, performed with LA Opera and the San Francisco Symphony, and taught public speaking and communication skills at Stanford Law School, UC Berkeley School of Law, and the University of Chicago Law School.
Paul brings this rare combination of legal, executive, and performance experience to every Vox Vera engagement.
What Sets Vox Vera Apart
Peer-level expertise.
Our coaches have been in the rooms you’re preparing for — courtrooms, boardrooms, negotiation tables, classrooms, TV studios, and stages.
Embodied methodology.
We train the physical architecture of communication: breath, voice, posture, attention, and the embodied use of language. We go beyond superficial presentation tips to train real, lasting performance craft.
Patsy Rodenburg certification.
Paul Marchegiani and many of our associate coaches are certified in this voice, present, and text method, which has shaped generations of performers and leaders at the Royal National Theatre, the Guildhall School, the Royal Shakespeare Company, in Hollywood, and on Broadway.
Proprietary frameworks and persuasion science.
Our exclusive Performance Ladder™ and Presence Ladder™ models give clients a shared, rational framework for understanding presence, clarity, and authority under pressure, and we draw from research in linguistics and neuroscience to make our clients more persuasive and connected when it counts.
Confidential, rigorous, and results-driven.
Our clients include AmLaw 200 partners, Fortune 50 senior executives, elected officials, academics, and public figures who require discretion and depth.
